For more frame-/window-specific solutions see
http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/CategoryWindows, specifically the
"Switching Window Configurations" section. I use Workgroups
(http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/WorkgroupsForWindows) and like it quite
a bit: it saves frame/window/buffer configurations, but doesn't save all
my open files unless I ask it to. For me, that's just the right amount
of persistence.
